Deconstructing the Award-Winning Lecture

What goes into making a lecture stick for learners? How does one approach thinking about and designing an effective and memorable didactic? Join three recipients of teaching awards for outstanding lectures as they discuss principles of good teaching by deconstructing and analyzing what they believe are the key elements of an effective lecture. This panel discussion will be moderated by Dr. Neil Gesundheit and followed by a Q&A session.

Podcasts: Learning through Listening

Podcasts are increasingly recognized as an effective platform to facilitate the development of healthcare professionals. The integration of digital technology supports new opportunities for the delivery of medical content. Podcasts can be provided in a variety of formats and played on a range of devices. Additionally, the number of physicians seeking medical education online is rapidly growing. In this session, we will discuss the current role of podcasts as educational tools in medical education, provide our perspective on medical podcasts, and practical considerations and unique challenges associated with podcasting.

Learning Objectives

• Discuss the current role of podcasts as educational tools in medical education.
• Describe the practical considerations and unique challenges associated with podcasting.

Disability in Medicine - Inclusion and Mentorship

The first part of our session will be a didactic highlighting disability as diversity in medicine, an overview of our TMA-funded Disability in Medicine Mutual Mentorship Program (DM3P), accessibility best practices, and the research findings of DM3P's impact on participants. The second part will be small group case-based discussions in breakout rooms followed by a large group debrief.

Learning Objectives

• Define ableism and provide examples of its presence in medicine.
• Explain why disability should be included in diversity-promoting policies in all medical institutions.

Learning Culture, by Design: Fostering Reflective Practitioners

Whether you’re aware of it or not, your classroom has a culture (hopefully not a bacterial one!). How does the broader culture of medicine impact the culture of your classroom? And, how can you design a culture that is proven to foster learning? In this session, you’ll learn tools to design a healthy learning culture and foster reflective practitioners.

Learning Objectives:

• Explore how the culture of medicine is reflected in their classroom
• Discuss the elements of a healthy learning culture
• Apply reflection as a tool to shape learning culture
